“What was it like? When you and Steve were together?” Eddie asks.
Nancy’s face takes on a grave seriousness that, honestly, scares the shit out of him. She’s Nancy Wheeler, and she’s always serious, but this is the kind of serious she gets when Eddie’s seen her talk about how awful the Hawkins Post is or the best way to aim for the kill.
This is Nancy Wheeler at her most serious. If Eddie were a lesser man, he’d be shaking in his boots. Instead, he’s only slightly aware of the way his feet are going numb in his high tops.
“Loving Steve is the easiest thing you’ll ever do,” she says. “And he’s going to find it so easy to love you back, because that’s what he does.”
Eddie wants to nod or say something to acknowledge that, but he doesn’t. He keeps sitting on the couch next to Nancy and waits for her to continue after she takes a sip of her Coke.
“Being loved by Steve is the hard part. He’s going to see you in a way that doesn’t line up with how you see yourself.”
She takes a deep breath. Unlike Eddie’s, hers doesn’t rattle in her lungs.
Straightedge.
“Because he is only ever going to see the best parts of you, and he is going to love them with everything he has.”
She looks at him for the first time. “Do you understand?”
Eddie nods, and he wants to leave it at that. Instead, he opens his mouth and asks, “Do you think you’d still be together? If it weren’t for the monsters?”
Nancy downs the rest of her Coke like a shot. Maybe she wishes that’s what it was.
“I don’t know. I don’t know what could have been, but I do know we’re different people now.”
“Okay.”
“I think,” Nancy says, because she’s not done and she’s a hell of a lot better with her words than Eddie is, “that people want what they didn’t have growing up. I want to make it big and get noticed and get the hell out. And Steve wants things that are big for him but little for me.”
She levels Eddie another look. Her big eyes are imploring.
Do you understand? they ask. Do you blame me?
Yes, Eddie thinks. No.
“So, as long as you can handle him loving you, and if you want the same things, I think you’ll be fine.”
“Just fine?” Eddie asks, trying to bring some levity back.
Nancy smiles for the first time. “More than fine. You’ll be better to him than I was.”
And with that, she gets off the couch and leaves Eddie alone.

does he tell you that you're his goddess and that he weeps for your embrace... that he is yours in body and soul...

I googled animals that are known to be symbolic of death. I thought you might want to choose one of these for your mortal form.
Bats
Black Cats
Butterflies
Crows (I know you want to avoid Sonic but hopefully he’s too busy sleeping and teaming up with his friends and that sheep lady in his dreams to deal with you.)
Owls
Ravens
Snakes
Spiders
Vultures
Worms
I also came up with some name suggestions, because even though Mobian names can be a bit weird, The End isn’t really a name you want to go by if you want to fit in.
Luna
Void
Nevermore (especially if you choose to be a raven)
None
Nobody
Dabria
Nil
Rebirth
Abyss
The Present
FriEnd
Norm Alguy
Mort Al
....Huh.
....
I admit, choosing a species has been.... daunting.
There are just so many.... And what if I grow dissatisfied with my choice....?
....
....
I am.... thankful.... for your suggestions.
I will not be going by "Norm Alguy," however.

Day 30 - Holding Hands
Hospital setting, hand holding, broken bones [leg], heart monitor mention, paralysis and nerve damage
[Directly follows "Can you hear me?"]
“You look…tired.” David breathed, RJ cracking a smile and rolling their eyes.
“You look like shit yourself.” Their voice was husky and comforting. The pair were alone in David’s room, RJ in a hospital wheelchair and David in his bed.
“How long was I out?” He winced at the subtle pity in their eyes.
“A day or so. Katie told you that when you woke up.”
“Right - right. Sorry, Harrison’s been grilling me all day and…” David yawned, aware of the irony of being tired despite not moving an inch. “…it’s been a long day.”
“He giving you trouble?” There was a dangerous undercurrent to RJ’s voice that tugged a smile to his lips.
“Oh yeah, it’s been rough. What with the waterboarding and fire torture and truth serum.” His thick sarcasm drew a snort of laughter from RJ. “Honestly though? 8 out of 10, best interrogation I’ve had. Could be improve with the addition of some snacks and refreshments, maybe even, like, a gift card for compensation.”
“I’ll let him know - you should file a proper assessment and post your review when you get the chance.” RJ shook their head, still smiling as they breathed a sigh. They shifted in their chair, casted leg twitching stiffly. “I should probably get back to my room, Katie’s been pitching a fit about me missing pain med doses. You should get some rest.”
Distress welled in David’s chest. He swallowed thickly, trying to will his hand to reach out and take theirs. He only succeeded in making his fingers twitch. They unlocked their chair’s wheels, turning to leave.
“…wait - wait. Please.” His voice seemed small, even as the empty tile floor amplified it. RJ froze, looking back at him with wide, gentle eyes. “I just…nevermind. It’s stupid.”
He could feel heat rise on his cheeks, a mix of frustration and embarrassment as RJ rolled closer and locked their wheels again.
“What? What’s wrong?” Their eyes darted around the medical equipment surrounding the bed, every monitor and wire singing a soft chorus to his rising blood pressure and unsteady heartbeat.
“It’s nothing - it’s dumb, don’t worry about it.”
“Tell me.” RJ reached out and held his hand, their skin cold and slightly damp. He breathed a sigh of relief, the contact a welcome confirmation. He was there. They were there. They were both alive.
“Thank you.” He closed his eyes, managing to coordinate a gentle, weak squeeze of their hand with his own clumsy fingers. “I just…I’m not dreaming. You’re okay. We’re okay.”
“Yeah.” RJ’s grip was firm and reassuring, their voice cracking as they spoke. “We made it.”
[Directly before Sleepless]
